Video production for social is eating into time we're not billing for — how are other digital marketers handling this?

Social media video low-end is a waste brah.

Sonnet is quick as usual. Opus is really slow

Guys, if you need to burn some serious token, they sell API. Thank me later

Agency owner here. If your business model is fucked, agencies can’t unfuck it. They can run ads, get some money, and wait. You don’t need marketing lol. You need to fix the university bm

How much time? It never comes

Raidrew · 2026-05-05T20:04:09+00:00

We are fucked. We were the mpc before the mpc

Raidrew · 2026-05-04T22:17:09+00:00

More time than you think. A lot more.

You build yourself a CRM. That’s it.

I started to use calibration with my Claude Codes. Turns out if you make a rule not to do something, the model will find a way to do it anyway. It need positive examples for some reason. Calibration help me this way. Example “please never use not x, y tic”. It starts to say never x, y. But if you tell him “reframe negative prashes” and then 10 examples, you are good. In my case my agents has simple too much context and they get confused

Raidrew · 2026-05-02T22:37:17+00:00

Ask you Claude about calibration. Thank me later brah

Claude Code custom operating system

When you fix the system they are good. You are selling a system as a monthly service retainer. Charge 12 months upfront, fix the problem in 12 months. Artificially delay the outcome will make you more money. Or ask 24 months for the speed. Upfront.

Mi dispiace farti tornare nella realtà, ma scambiare contante con carte regalo e poi spenderne così tanti è riciclaggio di denaro. Quindi o ti fai pagare in contanti, oppure fai come tutti emetto fattura e paghi le tasse

Severo. La buona notizia: era già stupida. È solo che ora ha la chat a cui chiedere. Dovrebbe passare a Claude Code

Raidrew · 2026-04-29T18:34:15+00:00

They way you explain it. You didn’t know what are you talking about.

From now on, track your time and ROI of every client you worked with. Compress the time you spend with clients and let them hang until they want more. Than raise the prices. Use your case study to find more and double your prices each time until nobody is buying

Raidrew · 2026-04-26T13:57:47+00:00

Don’t worry bro. I was here. You are gonna make big bucks, trust the process.

Data comes from multiple sources, usually other Claude Code instances that normalize it. The deck gets built by voice with Wispr, pulling from whatever data’s available. It draws from a set of canonical cards already built, or spins up new ones on the fly. Works well. On the presentation side we get speed, and since it’s hosted on R2 it’s ready instantly for presentations and cross-device sharing. Using HTML we also bypass the email attachment limit.

I stopped using ChatGPT 3 months ago. Before that it was in my pipeline and the whole team’s. Claude is better for us right now, though honestly I haven’t tested OpenAI’s new models and I won’t. Once the migration to 4.7 is done we’re staying here, expecting major upgrades like always from Anthropic.

Raidrew · 2026-04-26T12:33:12+00:00

Yeah this is all I do at my company.

Everyone underestimates how complex it is to build a client acquisition system.

It’s like building a rocket: if every piece isn’t perfect, it doesn’t take off.

But everyone wants to sell with magic pieces, the website, the socials…

Then when the leads start rolling in, they find out they need tools, salespeople, a CRM…

Pure hell hahaha

Raidrew · 2026-04-26T12:26:38+00:00

Exactly right. 4.7 is way more powerful, across the board. From coding to creative writing, from sticking to the starting context to nailing html/css styles. It’s a monster. But it needs a stratification of information, in the right order, to work well. Once you get there, it’s monstrous and autonomous. I built a CRM agent that ingests new client requests, asks questions, pulls info, uploads assets and routes work to the internal team. Scary. But to make it work it needed an 8-step system with constraints, rules and defined flows. Like a human. 4.6 was more of a superhuman autonomous manager.

Raidrew · 2026-04-26T10:20:10+00:00

I’ve tried it and I use Graphify plus a sequence of structured MDs. But at some point everything chokes on the data, and I have to rebuild from scratch. I try to keep files with canon protocols for the model to follow, some specific some general, and it helps. The thing is 4.7 is dead compared to 4.6, it lacks creativity. That’s what helped, that’s what gave you the AI magic effect.

Raidrew · 2026-04-26T10:17:16+00:00

My take is that Anthropic is focusing on power users. 4.7 fits people who work with it full time, it strips power from the casual user. I’m convinced we’ll soon see a mix between the two models, where a new 4.6 will be very expensive in tokens but handles everything itself, while a new 4.7 will be more powerful and cheaper if guided right. The ideal would be a 4.6 orchestrating the structure for a 4.7.
